Heh, I use LOL a lot.

But speaking of "a lot", that brings me to MY pet peeve: "alot". THERE IS NO SUCH WORD, PEOPLE!! You can have "A LOT" of something, or "A LITTLE" of something. You can "allot" an allotment, you can allot a lot, but not you cannot allot a lot of alot.

You do something, THEN you do something else. Or, I would prefer to do that more THAN this. They're going over there to get their stuff.

Wow, why don't you ever call me when you have spillage at the liqour store to dispose of? No way you can be sober and come up with that!

By the way, what really burns my a$$ is an open flame about three feet high!

At least you capitalized and used punctuation. I can forgive someone for having poor spelling and grammar if they at least make an effort to compose a real sentence.

I don't really mind all the misspellings, typos or grammatical errors littering the forum(s). My brain usually process them fine. What drives me bonkers is when I step into a LFS and start talking the talk only to get tripped up by words that virtually everyone pronounces differently. How the heck do you pronounced Acropora, Giessemann, copepod, zeovit, etc..
